# Introduction to Terivto

Terivto is a structured derivatives ecosystem that provides synthetic derivatives, delivering granularized risk-adjusted rewards through smart leverage for traders. Simultaneously, Terivto ensures cryptocurrency operators have access to deep liquidity pools for effective hedging.

Terivto's Vision: *<mark style="background-color:blue;">**Effective marketability of operational risks in crypto**</mark>*

We aim to establish an on-chain derivatives ecosystem for all expertise levels. Speculators on Terivto can access various derivatives and options, including perpetual futures, options, interest rate derivatives, and stablecoins – foundational first-order structured derivatives that pave the way for higher-order structures. Traders can create leveraged and structured exposure to prices, APY, volatility, and more within a reliable decentralized infrastructure.

Operators on Terivto recognize the value of paying material fees to maintain the net expected value of their positions, ensuring reliable cost projections for their operations. We believe this, coupled with traders continuously losing expected future value, represents another source of organic real yield. Terivto is committed to providing value to crypto operators, protecting their positions against market volatility, as we understand the intrinsic link between DeFi and crypto.

To realize our vision, Terivto adheres to three key tenets:

1. Productive & sustainable yield sources via organic market behavior
2. Fully decentralized architecture & non-custodian trading/asset management
3. Community-owned & driven

Terivto is constructing a forward-thinking derivatives ecosystem, anticipating the future of DeFi and its users. Our user experience prioritizes simplicity, offering a range of products suitable for retail and institutional participants of varying needs and experience levels with DeFi.
